There's a Neko Mario Time with some coverage https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VmGrPWTIxUM

You can download the game and get access to 7 puzzles from 4 different worlds. Worlds are broken up into regular puzzles, puzzles that look like objects, puzzles with enemies, and NES-sprite based puzzles. You play as a different character in each world.

Once you've beaten the 28 free puzzles, you can then buy 100 new courses for the regular puzzle world for 500 yen, and 50 new courses each for the other worlds for 300 yen each. Or, you can buy a pack of all four for 1000 yen (400 yen discount). There is also a discount pack if you just want 3 worlds.

Buying and beating all four worlds gives you access to a special super-hard challenge world. You need to buy at least one of the worlds to get access to the Create-A-Puzzle feature.

QR code sharing of puzzles you make is back.

Pushmo is one of my favorite games. I really didn't like Crashmo so I'm glad this looks more like the former.

Beaten by Streets!

The game looks fun! The 3D puzzles look like they may catch my brain on fire.

 

[Foffy]

Another one? This is almost one a year. Jesus.

 

[astrogamer]

Looking at the trailer, each of the 4 paid worlds plays somewhat differently and uses a different character
The first one (500 yen) stars Mallo and it seems to play more like Pushmo but with with
The second one stars the girl from Crashmo and seems to be more complex kind of like the advanced Crashmo puzzles (excluding the falling mechanic)
The third one stars a boy I think from I think the original and plays more actiony with some enemies
The fourth one is game based puzzles with the grandpa

 

[GWX]

Holy shit, another one, and it looks awesome! Also, ~10 bucks for every level pack is good in my book. Loved Pushmo and Crashmo, but I haven't got the Wii U one: I wonder if it builds up enough on the 3DS game to stand on its own.

 

[maxcriden]

Omg. Yesssss! Pls come stateside.

 

[Lijik]

Gimmie dat F2P Pushmo

 

[Gonzo The Great]

Looks identical to the other two. Pass.

 

[kulapik]

I'm playing the first one right now and I'm loving it so far. I'll be getting Crashmo and this one for sure.

Looks identical to the other two. Pass.

How much did you play them?

 

[Foffy]

Looks identical to the other two. Pass.

The other three have enemies and let you pull things from left to right?

 

[Doorman]

I've only played Pushmo World so far...is this the first time that you can swing the camera around all four cardinal directions like that? I don't recall hearing about the previous games being quite so "three-dimensional" if you know what I mean.

Bring this stateside! Give it to meeeeee!

 

[Jintor]

Oh man that's decent value

 

[Escalario]

Looks identical to the other two. Pass.

So either 1) You didn't played the other 3 games, or 2) Didn't watch the video in the OP.

Spoiler

I bet it's both.

 

[NateDrake]

Enemies will add a nice extra layer of challenge.

There's also a Pushmo theme for 3DS available, 200 yen. Sound effects, theme from Pushmo World for music.

 

[Symtendo]

That looks like a pretty good evolution of the Pushmo gameplay, colour me interested.

I'm definitely in for the NES sprite levels, Nintendo have me by the balls when it comes to that stuff.

Interesting to note that Pushmo now has more iterations than Punch Out!

 

[dkeane]

Hope this gets to the U.S. Love this series.

 

[Salsa]

well its cool that it's F2P since it looks way too similar for me to drop the money beforehand

 

[Sandfox]

Well this is surprising and seems to fit the newer eshop releases from Nintendo.

 

[daydream]

Need this like I need dat Picross fix.

I need this ASAP. I love Pushmo and this looks to bring a lot of variety to the table while hopefully not being quite as obtuse as Crashmo.

Holy shit, another one, and it looks awesome! Also, ~10 bucks for every level pack is good in my book. Loved Pushmo and Crashmo, but I haven't got the Wii U one: I wonder if it builds up enough on the 3DS game to stand on its own.

The answer is basically yes. It's mostly standard Pushmo style puzzles, but there's a bunch of them, including mural stages, plus there's a set of extra puzzles where colors are linked (pulling out one red block pulls out all red blocks) and the online mode provides basically endless user puzzles that are very easy to jump right into. It lacks 3d but makes up for it with camera controls on the right stick to help get a good vantage point.

 

[OrbitalBeard]

Sweeeeeet! I love Pushmo.

Why don't I live in Japan to buy that

[TheGreatMightyPoo]

Liked the first one a lot but this is a bit much.

 

[VideoMan]

Ow my brain.

Spoiler

day one

 

[@MUWANdo]

Punch-Out!! has two arcade games, a NES game, a SNES game and a Wii game (plus the Arm Wrestling arcade game if you wanna be generous), it still wins.

 

[Metaternal]

Day one for me. I really liked the first two even though I think they could've done more with Pushmo World.

 

[panama chief]

This JP n3ds is paying off.

 

[Zonic]

Oh man, count me in, especially if it's free to play & offers a nice bundle. Now how long until this comes to the US, considering the other games got localized?

Sorry for the double post, but this can't go by:

https://twitter.com/LTNintendo/status/598303779595882496

Oh cool, so already has a name announced! Maybe we'll get it this week or the next?

 

[V-Faction]

Liked the first one a lot but this is a bit much.

C'mon, the game is called Pushmo, not Pushless.

(EU title not withstanding)

 

[StreetsAhead]

Initial download is 674 blocks in case anyone was wondering.

 

[Choomp]

"Hippa Land"!? Lol we ain't getting that shit

 

[Codeblue]

"Hippa Land"!? Lol we ain't getting that shit

Anything is possible.

 

[rjc571]

Downloaded it and played two levels. It runs at only 30 fps. The previous Pushmo/Crashmo games all ran at 60 fps (even in 3D). Deleted it immediately.

It wouldn't happen to be the "antagonist" from Pushmo would it?

It's a fucking puzzle game. Framerate isn't a deal breaker.

Oh, so that's how they managed it work in the extra effects. Not really a deal breaker, though.

 

[rjc571]

It kind of is when it's also a platformer which requires precise timing and movement to make jumps.

Lmao, had to check and make sure I wasn't the one who posted this. Sounds like something I'd do.

I believe so. I just double checked and he looks the same.

 

[Shauni]

So this is more Rusty's Real Deal Baseball over, say, Pokemon Shuffle?

Yeah, it's the brat, as well as the girl and Papa Blox or whatever the old guy is called.

 

[Fireblend]

IN MY VEINS.


Looks awesome. This came out of nowhere!

 

[rpmurphy]

3DS or N3DS? I just got it for N3DS and don't see any issue with framerate.
